Outside Qingchuan City, outside the level 10 dungeon area.
Braggart Night Wind's expression was grim as he reported to Qin Fen.
"Fen Shao, I've sent out five small teams to search, but none of them have found any trace of a level 10 or higher Boss."
Qin Fen narrowed his eyes, his voice cold.
"Could it be that someone has already killed all the Bosses?"
"According to you, besides Yang Jian Qingming, no one else in Qingchuan City should have this capability, right? I read books."
Braggart Night Wind shook his head.
"It shouldn't be him. About half an hour ago, I saw the system message of him killing a level 40 Boss. He shouldn't be active in Qingchuan City anymore."
"A level 40 Boss?"
Qin Fen clenched his fists, feeling somewhat resentful.
"My rivals are already killing level 40 Bosses. Yet I'm doing a transcendence quest and can't even find a Boss above level 10. How ironic."
He said fiercely, "Keep searching. I don't believe all the Bosses above level 10 are dead!"
"What level can you guys handle at most?"
Braggart Night Wind thought for a moment before replying.
"If cost is not a consideration, level 14 should be fine. Level 15 is questionable. After all, every five levels, there's a small improvement. Players' weapons, equipment, and attribute points will change significantly. For monsters, it might just be the difference between having one more spell or one less. The impact on a battle can be quite large."
Qin Fen waved his hand.
"Don't worry about the money. As long as the transcendence quest can be completed quickly, ignore the cost."
Suddenly, his eyes widened in surprise.
"Hey, isn't there someone selling Boss coordinates?"
Braggart Night Wind also saw the exchange on the world channel and said hesitantly, "It looks like someone else has already bought it."
Qin Fen was getting impatient.
"This thing has a first-come, first-served policy? I didn't even see him reply on the world channel."
Seeing Braggart Night Wind's hesitant look, he was almost bursting with anger. He directly added the other party as a friend.
[King Fen Shao]: I'll buy the Boss coordinates. How much?
[Grandpa Bei Ye]: Big boss, someone has already bought it. They just paid.
As a professional explorer, although his purpose in the game was to make money, he wasn't without professional ethics. He couldn't possibly sell the same Boss coordinates to two different people.
[King Fen Shao]: How much did you sell it for?
[Grandpa Bei Ye]: 30 gold.
He deliberately quoted a higher price, thinking it would be enough to dissuade the other party and make them give up on buying coordinates.
[King Fen Shao]: I'll pay 60 gold. Sell me a copy too.
[Grandpa Bei Ye]: Big boss, it's really not about the money. If we do this kind of thing, we won't be able to survive. Although he was tempted, Zhan Shen Ba Dao was the leader of the Zhan Shen Guild, a top-ranked player on the combat power list. To make a few dozen more gold, offending someone like him would not be worth it. He was doing long-term business.
[King Fen Shao]: 100 gold. Report the coordinates quickly!
[Grandpa Bei Ye]: Big boss, this is no fun. Who buys coordinates at such a high price? He originally thought he had met a big spender. But now it seemed this was clearly a mischievous player. 60 gold was already not enough to break even. 100 gold was definitely a 100% loss. Would anyone do business that was doomed to lose money? He certainly wouldn't. He didn't believe there were such fools among truly wealthy people.
Qin Fen saw the other party's message and was furious.
"What's the meaning of this? Looking down on me?"
He turned to Braggart Night Wind and asked, "Do you know this Grandpa Bei Ye?"
Braggart Night Wind thought for a moment. He had seen this ID in other games. He was indeed a professional explorer. He just didn't know if it was the same person in this game.
Qin Fen urged, "Hurry up and find out."
Seeing that Qin Fen seemed about to lose his temper, Braggart Night Wind didn't dare to delay and quickly contacted the other party.
[Braggart Night Wind]: Bro, is it really you?
[Grandpa Bei Ye]: Hello, Brother Feng. It's me. In "Journey to the West," I also sold you a Yong Sheng Furong.
Braggart Night Wind's face darkened.
"It's really this scoundrel! When I was playing "Journey to the West," I wanted to collect some rare equipment and summoned beasts. I bought a rare Furong with a lifespan of eternal from Grandpa Bei Ye. There was no other one in the entire game. Unexpectedly, less than a month after buying it, after showing it off to friends once, the game officials discovered it and took it back as a bugged item. I was so angry at the time! The money was a small matter, but I lost face. I didn't expect to meet this guy again in this game."
[Braggart Night Wind]: Are you still talking about that?
[Grandpa Bei Ye]: Brother Feng, this is meaningless. Can you still bring up what happened in the last game into this one?
[Braggart Night Wind]: Didn't you bring it up first? Cut the crap. The person who just asked you was our boss. He asked me to see if you were a fake pretending to be him to scam money. I read books.
[Grandpa Bei Ye]: Genuine!
[Grandpa Bei Ye]: Brother Feng, has your guild leader changed?
He was a little confused. Why hadn't the president of the Braggart Guild displayed the guild name and spoken in such a clueless and money-flinging tone? Had they been acquired by a consortium? Did game guilds also have to follow the path of "moneyball" sports?
[Braggart Night Wind]: Not the leader, but one of our clients, a top-tier god-tier player!
[Braggart Night Wind]: Alright, that's all. Regarding the coordinates, you can talk to Fen Shao.
He was mentally exhausted. He didn't want to be involved in something that was clearly a losing deal. Let Qin Fen be fleeced by himself.
He closed the chat window and respectfully reported to Qin Fen.
"Fen Shao, I've confirmed. It's the real person."
Qin Fen nodded.
"Since he's not a scammer, then it's easy to handle."
[King Fen Shao]: 120 gold. Report the coordinates quickly!
[Grandpa Bei Ye]: Big boss, you're amazing, but if I do this, my reputation in the circle will be ruined.
Upon learning that this Fen Shao wasn't playing games but was a true god-tier player, his tone changed.
"It's not that I want to make this money. It's that if I make this money, I won't be able to establish myself in the circle. I won't be able to make money in the future."
He was practically saying: "If you want me to be a scoundrel, fine. You have to pay more!"
Qin Fen didn't expect the other party's twists and turns. He only knew that he had sworn to defeat his opponent Yang Jian Qingming, who called him "big brother," and now Yang Jian Qingming was already killing level 40 Bosses. He, who had been the number one player in various games and a top god-tier player in the entire gaming world, hadn't even completed a single transcendence in "Eternal World." He hadn't even entered the top ten on the combat power list. As for waiting for other Bosses to respawn? When would that be? He had only been playing the game for less than a day and had already missed major events like the monster siege. Not only did he not get buffs like "Guardian of Qingchuan City," but he also let Yang Jian Qingming enjoy the spoils of a level 20 Boss alone. This was the huge disparity. If he waited for Bosses to respawn again, wouldn't his opponents be killing level 50 Bosses by then?
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated.
